Description:

Delve into the Big Island’s history while take a breaking and enjoying a lunch cruise along the Kona coast on a 65-foot (20-m) catamaran. Hear legends and stories of ancient Hawaii on your way to Kealakekua Bay, where a monument memorializes the arrival of Captain Cook to these islands.

Climb aboard a spacious catamaran for a delightful afternoon. The 12-mile (19-km) coastline between Kona and Kealakekua Bay hosts some of Hawaii’s most historic locations. See the burial mounds at the Kuamo’o Battlefield and the remnants of an old hōlua course, where daring chiefs once rode sleds down steep slopes of small rocks. At each stop, a local historian points out areas of interest and explains their meaning.

In between sites, explore the Kanoa II—a multi-million-dollar vessel designed with quality and comfort in mind. Kick back with plenty of shade, cushioned seating, flat-screen televisions, a full sound system, and a premium bar. When you’ve worked up an appetite, tuck into a deli lunch with tropical fruits.

Sail past the Ahu'ena Heiau—a temple restored by King Kamehameha in the 19th century—and arrive at the monolith that pays tribute to Captain Cook for a brief visit. On the way back to Kailua Pier, consider a drink at the bar and listen to some live Hawaiian music performed by local musicians.
